Robber pushed elderly woman to ground before snatching her handbag

A robber pushed an elderly woman to the ground before snatching her handbag.

The 81-year-old woman was walking along Harehill Street, Todmorden, at around noon on Wednesday 1 November, when she was pushed to the ground from behind.

The suspect then yanked the handbag from the victim before running off towards Pennine Care Home Gardens.

Police would like to speak to two potential witnesses who were walking along Burnley Road, near Jack’s House pub, around the time of the robbery.

Det Con Joanne Nichols, of Calderdale CID, said: “This has clearly been a traumatic experience for the victim, who is understandably very distressed following the incident. Thankfully she was not seriously injured.

“I would appeal to anyone who may have been in the area around the time of the incident to think back to if they saw anything suspicious, or someone running away from the area.”

Police are going to start filming us at the wheel - from unmarked lorries

Watch out - because if you’re not watching the road, police may be watching you.

WYP have announced that from today they will be hunting careless and dangerous drivers on the motorway from unmarked HGVs. The force will be using the lorries to film other drivers during a five-day operation named Operation Tramline.

Sergeant Steve Suggitt, of West Yorkshire Police’s Safer Roads and Neighbourhood Support Team, said: “Being in a HGV means we can not only see the car driver checking the latest message on their mobile, but we are also on the same level as other HGV drivers and can see if their attention is diverted from the road.”

Rate of attacks on fire services revealed

West Yorkshire fire fighters were attacked a staggering 18 times this week alone, it has been revealed.

The concerning figures were released by the service today, in spite of what they say was a relatively quiet bonfire night. Whilst some attacks were aimed at firefighters in fire engines, other attacks were directed towards ‘fire cars’ which are police vehicles containing a co-responding police officer and fire officer.

Services last night were attacked with fireworks by a mob of “at least 100” youths as they attended an incident in Thornton Lodge. meanwhile, this picture shows riot police turning up at a street in Leeds last night after some people threw fireworks at buildings and cars.

Deputy Chief Fire Officer Dave Walton said: “It is only through good fortune that we have not had a firefighter injured by this incredibly foolish behaviour on what has been a very busy night for us. We hope that by raising public awareness of these attacks we will see a public stance against attacks on firefighters and a change in legislation which will help safeguard our crews in the future.”

Gang of "at least 100 youths" launch fireworks at fire service

Fire fighters reported a generally quiet night across Huddersfield and wider Kirklees last night, although there were three incidents of fireworks being thrown at crews.

Huddersfield fire station were called to Rashcliff Hill Road in Thornton Lodge last night to a fire in the open when a crowd of young people threw fireworks at the fire engine. The attack was so aggressive with so many people that the crew were unable to even leave the fire engine and had to turn around.

Crew Commander Shane Byrne said: “Some of these people need to remember what fire engines are for and that they might actually need one one day.”

Halifax fire fighters also experienced similar attacks in the Park Ward area. The crew were called to two separate incidents of bonfires getting out of control when fireworks were thrown. The first attack on Parkinson Lane involved the fireworks being thrown at crew members, while the second involved them being launched at the fire engine itself on Hanson Lane as the crew were heading to an incident.

There were also reports of firework being thrown at crews in Bradford last night. Here’s firefighter James Hudson last week discussing attacks on fire fighters.

Fire fighters attend care home fire in Dewsbury

Fire services were called to a former care home last night after a fire started.

Four fire engines from Dewsbury, Ossett, Cleckheaton and Mirfield were at the scene at the now shut down Sunnyside Care Home on Oxford Road at 9.10pm after the blaze started on the ground floor. Police and ambulance were also called for fear there may have been rough sleepers inside.

Luckily, a search of the building found there was nobody inside the building at the time, so no reported injuries.

The care home is currently disused, but mattresses were found inside suggesting it was being used by rough sleepers.
